This small house is very cozy and "tight" meaning that even though the wind howled outside and it rained all night the first night we were there, we stayed warm and dry. We were not expecting to use the heat but we did and it worked. Kitchen very adequate for one person prepping a meal. The appliances were clean and there was enough dishes and cookware. Bed comfy. Plenty of extra blankets, pillows, and comforters--all worn but clean. There was enough hot water for a long shower, although the bathroom stayed fairly cool. It's large and set up with a bookshelf which was great for spreading out all our toiletries. Lots of extra towels--worn but clean. The house is not right "on the water" but one can view the water from the picnic table on the porch and the picture window by the indoor table. We used the fire pit on the only calm, warm night we had, and it was lovely. Plastic chairs are provided but only two of the five were intact---the others were breaking and had spider webs on the bottoms (with a spider!) We brought our own chairs and would recommend that anyway, presuming you have warm weather and can hang out on the white sand beach. It's a short drive and very pretty. TV had dish TV so the times we were inside and not reading, we were watching TV. Could also get music on five stations which was nice. Bill and Judah are a very nice couple who checked in with us a couple of times to make sure we had all we needed. Although this is not a fancy place, it was homey and we enjoyed our stay here. We would stay here again.
